How to prevent all Gallery data from refreshing after updating one item

Posted on by mgreiner79

I have a gallery within a gallery to create a kanban-like view. The cards are a little complicated, with icons shown, based on some conditions.

I have an edit-item modal form that pops-up when clicking on a pen icon. After updating one field in the form, and closing the form, the entire gallery refreshes its data. This makes for a pretty sluggish UX.

I'm wondering if there is a way I can only refresh the item that I have edited, without re-loading all the gallery's data from the server.

Hi @mgreiner79 ,

A gallery's default behaviour is to refresh when any code is run from a control inside it and unfortunately this cannot be changed.

Please click Accept as solution if my post helped you solve your issue. This will help others find it more readily. It also closes the item. If the content was useful in other ways, please consider giving it Thumbs Up.

You can do this by using variables in stead of the controller text property.
If you change the variable the gallery refresh will be triggered. Changing the variable is controlled by you.

ex.
on a button a have the onselect:
Set(var_filter_FiscalPeriod;filter_FiscalPeriod.Text)

the gallery item property has:

Filter(
'public.actualstodate_fin';
var_filter_FiscalPeriod in fiscal_period
);

from the moment the var is changed, the refresh of the gallery is triggerd....

@VERHAET ,

I think you have this in reverse - the question was how to stop it refreshing, not how to make it refresh.
